What kind of climbing do you prefer? The fun kind of climbing. There are days when climbing is total work and then there are days when it’s nothing but smiles

What's your most memorable climbing experience? Pushing my work and client boundaries when onsight guiding routes. There is a lot more on my mind then just the route. I like how it keeps me sharp and on point.

What do you think of trad climbing? For me, this is how I started so it feels more natural than other styles

Sport climbing? As I get older I’m loving this more and more. Sport climbing will defiantly help you get stronger

Alpine climbing? This was always my dream as a Padawan climber. I love the culmination of every skill applied to one peak, one route

Mixed climbing? Yeah, that’s good stuff. Especially when there is no ice and your in a Tshirt and jeans getting your pump on with your bro’s!

Bouldering? To be honest I don’t hang with too many boulderers. I like the purity and power of bouldering, maybe I should start.

What's your favorite food? McDonalds! Er I mean good wholesome stuff.. like vegetables or things like that.
